The Taiwan-based computer manufacturer Gigabyte recently showed off its own upcoming Tegra 2 tablet at the CeBIT expo. Dubbed the GN-TB100, the capacitive 10.1-inch tablet will be loaded with features, including a 1280x800 resolution IPS screen, rear and front cameras, microSD slot, SIM card slot, microphone, HDMI-out, 3G connectivity, and up to 1GB DDR2 RAM. Unfortunately, the device is currently running Android 2.2, but Gigabyte plans to upgrade to Android 3.0 before it officially launches this July. The spokesperson also noted that other models based on this tablet prototype are anticipated to hit the market later in the year. The pricing of the tablet, as expected, was not revealed.

After graduating with a B.S. in environmental hydrodynamics from the University of California, I studied reactor physics to become licensed by the U.S. NRC to operate nuclear reactors. There's a striking level of appreciation you gain for everyday consumer electronics after working with modern nuclear reactivity systems astonishingly powered by computers from the 80s. When I'm not managing day-to-day activities and US review articles on Notebookcheck, you can catch me following the eSports scene and the latest gaming news.
